Amazing sushi spot in a centralized part of Whittier. Love the family feel it has and will definitely be coming more frequently. No set omakase menu like I like it!

As a avid sushi lover for many years i know when i’m having quality sushi and this restaurant has to be one of my favorites. I have been going to this place with my family for many years and I have grown very fond over this place. The service and food is top notch, if you are looking to satisfy your tastebuds with amazing sushi you need to come here.

This place is pretty good. Most of the food was delicious. Some of the things we had included Miso Cod (delicious, but a bit small), salmon sushi, baked crab roll (really good), caterpillar roll (OK), and salmon skin cut roll. What I dislike about this place is the parking. That’s the biggest reason for 4 stars. This shopping center seems to be packed all the time. It’s challenging to find a parking spot. Careful with parking in the Norm’s parking lot because they tow. Overall, it’s a good place for sushi.

Love eating sushi here. Food and service are consistently good. Their prices are reasonable and, frankly, quite affordable given the quality. Have never had to wait to eat and absolutely love coming here. And the ginger? Fantastic! Love supporting this small local business.

I am a Whittier local and recently have started to eat sushi. This was my first experience with it. The staff is very friendly and the food comes out quick. The food is always very fresh. The location is “cozy”. The actual sushi bar area is a bit small, but there is still plenty of seating. Love this place!

Coming from a more metropolitan area, I missed good sushi and it is near impossible to find good sushi in Orange County. Dakara Sushi doesn’t fail to deliver. My layman taste buds tell me it’s an ‘authentic’ sushi restaurant run by Japanese, based on my past trips to Japan. It is the closest thing to real, quality Japanese sushi I have come across in the OC area and I can’t recommend this place enough. Their humble and unassuming presence convinces me they focus on the food and not display, which is exactly what I want. This is not to say their decor is subpar, but it doesn’t involve tacky ornaments and, is thus, refreshing to see transparency and confidence in the way they present themselves. I consider Dakara a godsend in this sea of questionable sushi restaurants. I strongly recommend this place.

Best sushi in town and in la. Don’t judge a book by its cover. If this place was in the west side or Dtla it would be triple the price. Every time I eat sushi I compare it to this place and no one can touch it

First time eating here. Recommended by colleague. Since I was doing carry out, I opted for tge teriyaki dishes. Both were great!

Love it! Everything is good here. You can’t go wrong. Gotta try the Japanese ceviche, one of my favorites.

Dakara Sushi is a great neighborhood place with great staff. The restaurant has some of the best sushi around and always has something new on the menu. Dakara sources some of the best fish from specific vendors and locations. If Jason (sushi chef) doesn’t have it, it either wasn’t fresh or wasn’t available through one of his trusted vendors.
